How Do I Edit Rectangle on Blank Canvass?

Hi Guys,
I'm having problems editing the rounded rectangle on a blank white canvass. I have drawn the rectangle onto the canvass but it keeps coming up in a black colour.
How do I change it to white? When I go to "edit" then "fill" I select foreground colour and then white. The problem is the rounded rectangle then disappears all together into the white background.
Also, how do I add the drop shadow and alter the stroke? I have unlocked that layer and then gone into blending options and ticked the drop shadow option but it is still not showing up on the rounded rectangle..
I'm very confused by all this so would really appreciate your help.
Thanks.
Sunil.

Thanks for this! I am finally able to select a white foreground. The drop shadow looks a bit strange, there is a gap between the lines instead of a slight shadow. How do I get a slight shadow to show up?
No way to answer that – I cannot see your monitor. Post a screenshot.
I have now floated several layers in the workspace which includes a cropped image and the rounded rectangle. How do I insert the cropped image into the rounded rectangle?
Select All (Ctrl+A) in the cropped image and copy (Ctrl+C).
Select the white area in your rounded rectangle (Magic Wand) and choose Edit > Paste into.
Resize if necessary with Ctrl+T.

How can i edit Iweb published page to open as a Popup?

I want to edit my iWeb site so that when a link is clicked it opens a different page as a popup with no other toolbars, scrollbars etc - just the image i want to show.
I found some code online (http://www.quackit.com/html/codes/html_popup_window_code.cfm) that does this in javascript, but i do not know where in the html file this would need to go for it to force that page to open as popup.
I have text wrangler so i can edit and save the file in the right format again.
I need to be able to set up various different triggers on a web page - Its a single photo image but i want to be able to open different pop-ups depending on where the viewer clicks. I tried using a blank shape (no fill, no stroke) along with an html snippet widget. This triggers the pop-up as i want, but it also places a definite empty box over the image. I need this to be invisible. I have also read that the snippet widget is not the mpst reliable way to add code at specific places on the page.
Hence i think the best way would be to insert code into the actual page that instructs it to open as popup.
Please can someone advise me the best way to go about editing the code to get this result?
thanks
adam

thanks for the suggestions...
unfortunately, i don't understand the code enough to figure out what i need. The pop-ups you show are exactly right, but they are being triggered by smaller individual thumbnails.
That is not what i want - i need to have various trigger points for different pop-ups, placed at diferent places on a larger single image.
Imagine a photo of a crowd - each person when clicked on would open a popup showing a specific image. Its not a regularly laid out grid - and the trigger points need to be manually positioned.
I have created a blank page with the same dimensions as the graphic it contains, then published this from iweb. When i link to this it opens the page as a docked page, with all the navigation bars, scrolling bars etc, as well as a large area of empty white page below the image.
My question is really how do i edit the code of the graphic page so that it only pops open the graphic when its accessed. Surely the relevant code for that would be embedded in the page itself, and not the link that connected to it?
thanks for your patience!

First off it would be good to learn how to use iPhoto - editing is one of the most basic operations - what version of iPhoto do you have? Have you watched the videos and looked in Help?
In general you select the photo can click edit - to straighten you use the "Straighten tool" - to remove areas around the photo you use the "crop tool"

In Pages, how do I edit the "My Card" data?

in Pages, how do I edit the "My Card" data?
I can't get a sender field to select my Email address or mobile phone.
I've searched the Help file for "My Card" and come up with nothing.
I've looked in My Contacts and edited the data where my name has a little blue bust (figuring MAYBE that's the My Card),
but everything looks correct in there, so the sender field isn't pulling data from here.
So WHERE DO SENDER FIELDS COME FROM?

Peter:
First of all, THANKS for the quick reply. However it’s not working, either from the Link Inspector, or directly from the Menu. Here’s the steps to reproduce the problem:
I start with a new blank document, then pull down the Insert menu / Sender Field / Name / First Name, all it does is insert the word “First Name” into the document.
Pull down the Insert menu / Sender Field / Phone / Home Phone, all it does is insert the words “Home Phone”.
Same with all the other fields.
In other words, Sender Fields are not pulling data from the Contacts list.
I have done as you suggested, even closing both the Pages program AND Contacts, then starting Contacts first before starting Pages, in the hope that the link between the two will be established when starting Pages. Still no good.
I got it to work once last night (which was a good sanity-check for me to know I was doing it right) after editing my contact data inside the Contacts program, but I can’t get it to work today. I’ve tried rebooting, restarting Contacts, starting contacts BOTH before and after starting Pages. But it still won’t go.
It’s hard to believe this program is an Apple product, seeing how unreliable it is.
Any other suggestions?

How Do I Edit Apple ProRes 422 HQ on my PC?

I've recieved some footage that I'm supposed to be editing, but all of is Apple ProRes 422 HQ and I've got a PC. Everytime I try to import the files into either Premiere CC or AfterFX CC the audio works, but the video is just a blank green screen. So my question is, how do I edit ProRes on my PC? What steps do I need to take to make it editable?

As Richard stated, just install Apple QuickTime, nothing to purchase. I've edited ProRes on several different PCs and never an issue (QT was already installed by default on those machines).

How can I edit the SamAccountName column from the list or be able to edit it?

Hello,
In my view for a SharePoint list, I see three columns for SamAccountName. This list is for listing staff as a directory, so there are phone numbers, names, emails addresses, division, department and such. The SamAccountName
column for some people has incorrect username or is blank. When I edit a record in the list, the SamAccountName column is not available to edit.
How can I edit the SamAccountName column from the list or be able to edit it?
I do have user profiles working and importing profiles from AD, but the list still shows empty or incorrect SamAccountName for some records.

Iphoto 9.6.1 how do I leave pix space blank, filled in with background color

I'm making a photo book using iPhoto 9.6.1 How do I leave pix space blank, filled in with background color? I want half the page taken up with a picture and the other half colored in.

There's actually an option to iPhoto Library Manager that makes this all almost work flawlessly (and work well enough for me). With the exception of Photo Albums that the pictures are part of, if you select "Library > Rebuild Library..." and then select "Scavange Orphaned Photos" check box, then it will put all the Photos and Movies into the "Scavanged Photos" album. It matches the modified pictures to their originals. It preserves all the event names and photo groupings. All the meta-data I could spot check it got right (although with 44k pictures, I only checked a few). If you fail to select this option, however, it will find no pictures at all when it goes to rebuild the library (this was true of the small test libraries I tried as well as the big, monster 280GB library I just finished converting). The conversion process took 5 hours to run, but in the end produced a library my new iPhoto can read and that I can interact with. I'll be suggesting to the iPhoto Library Manager folks a notation that would estimate the number of Orphaned Photos and display that number as a hint to the user that the option would be useful.
Edited: Thanks to Old Toad and LarryHN for their help in finding which of the many options to transition this library to 9.5.1 I needed to use. Sorry if I took my frustration of the past several months out on you guys for generously trying to help me.

How do you edit text that is in a text box?

How do you edit text that is in a text box? I just want to change the font color of the text. Solution in the Help files recommends selecting the text and then selecting Optional) To make further changes to the text box:
   Using the Select tool or the Text Box tool, click an edge of the text box to select it, and then drag a corner to resize it. Use the Properties toolbar to change the border and fill options.
   Double-click the text box to edit the text or change the text attributes. Drag across text to select it, and then select options from the Properties toolbar.
This is what the help files recommend
(Optional) To make further changes to the text box:
   Using the Select tool or the Text Box tool, click an edge of the text box to select it, and then drag a corner to resize it. Use the Properties toolbar to change the border and fill options.
   Double-click the text box to edit the text or change the text attributes. Drag across text to select it, and then select options from the Properties toolbar.
When I try the above solution I don't have a "Options" in the "Properties" toolbar.
Why would they change a process that was so simple in previous editions to such a hidden awkward process?

Try with a Brightness/Contrast adjustment layer and/or changing the blending mode.
If the effect is too much for the rest of the bulb, you may be able to mask it out.
It would help if you post a representative picture here on the forum page for us to look at.

How do I edit text in a fill-in form?

How do I edit text in a fill-in form? I am using Adobe Acrobat Pro version 10.1.8 in Mac OSX. The document was created in Word, saved as a pdf, opened in Acrobat, and form fields added. Now I need to change some of the text on the original form (mostly just dates). Ideally, I wish there were a way to edit the forms overall - add or delete lines, edit text, etc. I've done this before, but I always seem to need to go back to Word, edit the original document, and then re-create the form fields... it takes me a huge amount of time, making sure each field is formatted correctly (font, size, wrapping, text resizing, etc) so it looks ok when the user enters their data and prints it. Please, tell me there is a better way!
If the solution is upgrading to a higher version of Acrobat, I'm listening... but ideally I can get this batch done in the software I have, then worry about learning the newest version.

Fonts are Licensed asset's subject to single user use. They are not intended to be exchanged, redistributed, etc.
As part of the PDF standard they included in a document so that the document can be viewed reliably without the font be installed on the viewing station.
To edit you must have the font installed on your computer. The ability for second parties to use the font would violate font licenses.

How do I Edit an Existing PDF Form Without Losing Form Functionality

I'm brand new to Acrobat but familiar and proficient with Flash, PhotoShop Premiere Pro, After Effects, Dreamweaver, Fireworks etc.
The company I work for sells office supplies. We sell 57 distinct items. We have Acrobat 9. I am designing a PDF order form with fields that can be emailed to our clients as an attachment. They fill out the form, it calculates the total, they send it back to us, we fill and ship the order. Basic and straightforward.
I can add form fields to my order/pricelist... not a problem. The question is:
Once I have brought a PDF into Acrobat and add 57+ fields and calculations, which is a time consuming process, how do I edit an item price at a later date, if someone in the company decides to make a change to our pricing?
See..., If I save the original Microsoft Excel document as a PDF, Acrobat can't edit the text for some reason. Something to do with "Renderable Text". Now if I open the PDF saved from Microsoft Excel in Adobe Illustrator, I can use the text tool to make changes. That doesn't help me... just saying. Why can't I edit "Renderable Text" with the Acrobat Text Tool? Someone in a forum stated that Acrobat is NOT a word processing program! If that is an accurate statement, it would appear that Acrobat can at least work with base PDF documents to make certain types of modifications and add functionality. Is that correct?
Here's the problem. I create a PDF with form functionality. Everything works great. The boss says, I want to change the price of the scissors. I can't change the text in Acrobat because of the "Renderable Text" nonsense. Does this mean that I have to re-apply all of the form fields and calculations to the new base PDF document every time there is a minor change? I know there has to be a simple work around. Should I upgrade to a newer version of Acrobat?
Is it possible to save the original existing form functionality as a layer or overlay to be applied to the new modified base PDF document? Kind of like so many other Adobe products do including PhotoShop, Fireworks, Premiere Pro, After Effects, Flash etc., so that all of the form functionality can be applied in one big chunk? Premiere Pro has the time-saving feature of "Paste Attributes". It's a real time saver.
It may be simpler to just direct me to a video that goes through the process of creating a PDF order form with fillable fields that multiplys quantity by unit price and totals one column.
I already created a prototype of the form in PhotoShop which can be saved as a PDF. The finished order document appearance has 95 horizontal 3px wide lines and 6 vertical 3px lines, kind of like what one might expect to see in an Excel spread sheet. The form also contains some graphics and unconventional text areas that acrobat could overlay text fields and everything would be fine.
With these great number of horizontal dividing lines, It doesn't seem practical or even possible to create the basic layout in Acrobat. As I originally stated, I'm new to Acrobat and would like suggestions for a workflow that enables easy editing of an existing PDF document with form fields. I want to avoid the monumental task of re-doing all of the fields and calculations.

For what you are trying to do that is probably what you want -- Replace Pages. There are a few more issues that you need to be aware of since this is a business form. If customers are using Reader XI, it is not an issue.
On the renderable text, can you see the text list when you look at the font tab in the document properties (ctrl-D)? If not, they you do not really have fonts to edit. This may be the type of fonts you used in the original or the way in which you did the conversion to PDF. You need to have fonts that are on your system and then be sure to embed them (otherwise others may not be able to read them because of different OS or such).
As to e-mailing the form, that is fine (though there are sometimes problems with various clients and PDFs -- but usually on the sending end).
For collecting the data you may want to try a different route. For users of Reader XI, they can save the form with the data. Prior versions could not do that unless you enabled the form for Reader. However, this latter process has a 500 form use limit -- A license issue. If the data is submitted, then it does not make a difference. The folks with Reader XI can still save the form with the data, others will have to print a copy for their records.
The data can be imported to the form on your end and so you would have the exact same results as what was filled out. However, the submission process should be set up to submit to a web script for your receipt and not use mailto. The latter has problems that you have no control over due to proper operation with the mail client on the user machine. Typically the mail client must be the default and use MAPI. In any case, it is not reliable (not for business use). So submission to a web script is useful. The data in AcroForms would be of the type FDF (or possibly XFDF). If for some reason use created the form with Designer, that limit any editing in Acrobat since it is no longer a real PDF, but an XML container that Acrobat and Reader can display and interact with, but not change. Again, submission to a web script is still preferred.
For dealing with a web script and some coding for various languages, you can check out the FDF Toolkit. It has been around a while, but should still handle the CGI needs of the submission. In addition, it has tools for adding the data to a database and other typical operations for data collection. You can save the FDF files and import them to the form and deal with the data there also.
The use of Replace pages would do the job if all your form fields will still need to be in about the same location. Form fields are mark up and the pages are referred to as the document. Thus the replace pages will just original page and leave all the form fields. You will still need to go back and fix the value within the fields themselves, but that is a field edit.

I have a problem with my 4s camera which has come up recently. Everytime I take a picture and look it up via the 'Photos' app, it shows as blank. But when I click on edit on the blank picture, it comes up and I am able to save it back on my photo album.

Hi Noob Søren
There are a few things that are confusing in your question.
As far as I know, you dont have to install Time Machine on this OS as it is already installed for you. You only need to connect a hard drive to your computer via firewire or usb, click on the Time Machine icon, Open Time Machine Preference in the drop down menu and select a disk: your connected hard drive.
You can of course reformat this connected device, partition it into a few volumes to organise data if you so wish.
I find it strange that your mac's hard drive is divided into two volumes... perhaps this was created through bootcamp?
You can access the configuration of your hd through Applications/Utilities/Disk Utilities.
Clicking on one of the icons on the right hand panel will bring the details of the contents of your hardDrive and volumes. From there you can decide to erase a partition, reformat etc....
If your hd contains more than one volume, and one of them is empty, you could decide to remove it. Back up all your important data before doing so.
Hope this helps

How can I edit multiple clips with different frame rates on the same timeline

how can I edit multiple clips with different frame rates on the same timeline

You do not want to edit material from different frame rates on one timeline. You CAN do this, but it is a very bad idea - and this is why.
Once you establish the sequence frame rate - lets say it is PAL material at 25fps, any material that you drop into the sequence other than 25 fps will have to be changed to play at 25 fps. If the material you add is NTSC (29.97), FCP will DROP 5 frames per sec to bring the frame rate down to 25 fps. Which 5 get thrown away? Every 6th one. This yields a funky cadence that becomes even more complex as as there are also interlaced fields (DV/NTSC is an interlaced format). Oh, and by the way, the image sizes are different as well. DV/PAL has 576 lines of resolution and DV/NTSC has 480. FCP has to scale up the NTSC to fit the PAL frame.
You do not want FCP adjusting these things on the fly. You want to do a thoughtful (and time consuming) conversion so that you end up with all your material in one format with the best possible image from the conversion process. Compressor can do an adequate job with Frame Controls turned on. The Natress Standards Conversion FCP plugin is another way to go. A third option is to find a post house that can do the conversion for you using a hardware based process.
The good news is, once everything is in the same format, editing it will be painless and the output process very quick.
Whatever frame rate/ image size you select, I'd suggest using ProRes for the codec. It is 4:2:2 color and will withstand color correction and composting with much more grace than any variant of DV based codecs.
Have fun.

How do i edit my billing info if my credit card associated with apple id expired and i have a duty to app store from the time when i had the old credit card?

how do i edit my billing info if my credit card associated with apple id expired and i have a duty to app store from the time when i had the old credit card?
so the thing is a few days ago i made an app store purchase and i didn't know i was running out of money on my credit card. i realized that only when i tried to purchase another item and it didn't work. nothing special til here. the problem is that meanwhile my credit card was replaced by a new one by the bank because the old one was soon expiring. So the data associated with the old credit card no longer exist.
i tried to edit my billing info associated with my apple id in order to enter the new credit card data, but the system doesn't allow me to do that.
so i can neither pay my purchase, nor edit my info, nor access app store anymore.
what's next? any ideas? thanks
